"As a whole, the experience was transformative. I gained a first-hand education in forestry and environmental resource management; I began relationships with people and places all over the country; and–perhaps most importantly–I became more aware of how the Earth’s natural functions fit into my infinitesimal existence." – Josh Birnbaum on his experience as the IYOF photography fellow. Images from the International Year of Forests photography fellowship and an essay by Josh are currently featured on the Huffington Post.
